Flexible, Multicore Specification Curve
The popular specr package in R is good. However, specr is not super flexible—it does not support fixed-effect regressions, and mixed-effect regressions take some work.
I wanted to create a package that would build on specr while being more user-friendly. To that end, I’m working on this set of functions, which I’ve given the bad title of specster:
The current code supports:
- Four common models: OLS Linear Regression, Logistic Regression, Fixed-Effect Regression, and Linear Mixed-Effect Regression (i.e.,
lm,glm,lfe::felm, andlmerTest::lmerin R) - Setup of models
- Multicore processing to speed up computation
- Graphing with
ggplot2

Mediation Model Plotting (Work-in-Progress)
This function will draw you a mediation model in ggplot in R. It ain’t awesome, but mediation is kind of silly anyways.
I plan to keep adding to it, as it can only do super simple mediation now.
